Electric Vehicles - If you drive one of our electric taxis you won't have any fuel to pay. No, really you won't! Charging takes up to 20 minutes which can be done while you take a well deserved break at one of our four charging locations.

Pro Active- You'll never find Premier chasing the field, we are industry leaders. If you want to be ahead of the competition join Premier Taxis!

New drivers

When you first get your Taxi badge we advise that you start driving one of our company owned vehicles. This will allow you to get a feel for the job, learn the areas and understand the way in which the Taxi business works. You'll need to be over 25 and hold a valid UK driving licence, have a basic knowledge of Blackpool's main roads and a willingness to provide great service - the rest, we can teach you!

Work the shifts to suit your lifestyle - days or nights from just one to six shifts per week - you choose!
